I tried the optimal route. It didn't work out.
It's working out to be fine so far.
The tempest would still require some sort of slot or bonus change however.

I mean no offense, but we already have something like five of these threads going in Assembly Hall. Your changes are interesting, but i believe Astrophobic's are less sweeping, and more likely to be implemented.
CCP is going to balances these problems however they feel like, and the odds of having a complete proposal implemented are slim. So I think it's more important that we rally around one set of ideas and keep hammering on it, in the hopes that something is done about it.
So lets keep Astro's thread going. 
In terms of database modifications, there about the same.
The main issue with Astrophobic's is the falloff increase (with fall off being so large, and so many ships with fall off bonuses, somethings going to give) and the fix with the tempest, without really understanding why the tempest and artillery fails (combination of EHP, tracking, Range) and the aftermath to the Maelstrom as a result. I guess if you want to raise the profile of the issue, then supporting that thread won't hurt, however if your looking for a real/lasting fix, then I believe mine probably works best in the long run.

In summary
Quote:
ò Void ammo damage increased by 7%
ò Large Autocannons Gain 250% more optimal range
ò Large Artillery Gain 20% more tracking and clip size
ò New 1650mm Artillery Turret added with 25% more alpha, 10% more range, 10% more damage and 10% more fitting costs.
ò Maelstrom gains more powergrid, allowing it to fit (with some difficulty) the new 1650mm turrets.
ò The Tempest transforms into a shield tanking, target painting (up to 112.5km% optimal with Max skills) support battleship, with increased dps in most instances (due to 3 gyro's)
ò Faction ships modified accordingly.

no offense, but you're giving yourself way too much credit. The tempest has been broken for years now and there have been PLENTY of threads before this thread or yours acknowledging it.
Indeed, but being told to go home because I wasn't following eve-o sometime after the "I accidently the entire market" dev blog is a bit rich.
Also, you decrease the rate at which one fires by (100% + the damage increase% / 100% which in this case = 66%) to correctly compensate for a damage mod increase of 50%, or increase the damage mod by 100% to match a 50% decreased in ROF.
EG.
100 damage every two seconds. = 50 dps
Increase damage by 50%, decrease the rof by 50%
150 damage every 2.5 seconds = 60 dps not 50 dps.
Now try that with 66%
Like I said, calculator... it's pretty useful.
Cookie for anyone who figures our excel.
